Wedding Bells

No, not my wedding, lol, my sister, Liz, just got engaged to her boyfriend of two years, Mark. He only proposed two weeks ago and yet everything's been sorted already - the date is set, and the church and the reception are booked! I wouldn't mind but it's still 18 months away!

I've been asked (told?) to be a bridesmaid alongside Vicky (sis), Cathy (sis), and Sam (Mark's sis), and today we were dragged to the bridal shop to pick out what we're going to wear. I don't know if you've ever been in a bridal shop but they have one of every style of the dresses so you have to try it on regardless of the size. I, of course, ended up with a size 14 so I had to keep my top on as it would not stay up - I could step into it without undoing it! Eventually a dress was chosen for us but we cannot order now as there's a possiblity it could be discontinued so we have to go through it all again in a years time.

Now, I'm happy for the both of them, don't get me wrong, but they've been engaged for 15 days and all anyone will talk about is the wedding. I keep getting told off for not being more enthusiastic but hello people IT'S STILL EIGHTEEN FRICKING MONTHS AWAY!

Which brings us to the engagement party in a couple of weeks - I very possibly have someone to go with me - 'Mo' the underdog has come through.
